""American Idol's" Katherine McPhee Contender For TITLE ROLE Of "WONDER WOMAN"!"

Just when you thought the competition for the title role of Joss Whedon's "Wonder Woman" feature motion picture couldn't get any bigger, it actually is getting a little more well, BIZARRE!

"Entertainment Weekly Magazine's" Official Website, ew.com, reports in an INTERVIEW with "American Idol" fifth season runner-up Katherine McPhee, that McPhee is actually up for the title role, (though PAY ATTENTION to McPhee's not so good attempt at a white lie saying that taking the role, "would be a huge mistake".)

Yeah, you got THAT RIGHT! MORE than a huge mistake. To us, casting McPhee, as the legendary super hero would be more like the end of the world!

But, like we believe that huge corker from McPhee! YOU be the judge!

Here are the highlights from the INTERVIEW!!!!

Ew.com: "One of the more interesting things I've read is that your name is being bandied about to play "Wonder Woman" in Joss Whedon's big screen adaptation. Can you discuss?"

Katherine McPhee: "I just laugh about it. I mean, I'm not gonna deny it or admit to it. But it's funny, because no one has even received this so-called "Wonder Woman" script. It's like there's so much buzz created around a script that isn't even in the hands of any actresses yet. And that's all I'll really say. Yes, there have been, you know, like, conversations about it, but as far as the role being mine, or me being the lead up for it, I don't really know. I don't know what goes on behind the scenes in terms of producers and directors getting together to talk about a potential film. As far as I'm concerned, I don't even know if (a) "Wonder Woman" (movie) is going to happen for sure. I mean, I don't know who's financing it. So it's very flattering. And I think it's interesting how I've somehow wound up in the media again. My manager makes fun of me; he says, "You're just my little press hound, aren't you." (laughs)"

Ew.com: "Well it's got to be a little flattering to be mentioned for such an iconic role."

Katherine McPhee: "I will say, I do hear some things my fans are concerned about - they're very protective, my fans....As far as them being concerned about "Wonder Woman" being my first movie, I think it would be a huge mistake to tackle a role like that for my debut. I really want to make smart choices, and I don't think that would be a smart choice. A lot of times, regardless of whether you're a blockbuster actress, those kind of movies fail. So it wouldn't be very smart for a girl off a reality television show to take a film like that for her first motion picture. I keep those things in mind. I'm really business-savvy."

....Whatever! Look "American Idol" is practically the number one show and phenomenon in America. We think it's cool and all that.

....But while we know McPhee is just intentionally playing things down, being mum, waiting to see if "Wonder Woman", Joss Whedon, and comics fans ignite a firestorm like wage of panic throughout the free world and the internet over their concern about a karaoke, 2nd place talent competition singer at that, possibly filling such, as, Ew.com said, ICONIC shoes....

....You can bet your bottom dollar that if the film making powers that be, actually offered McPhee the role, (HEAVEN FORBID!), she would obviously take it.

....All we can say is SAY IT ISN'T SO!!!! Or to quote Darth Vader, "NOOOOOO!"

....STAY TUNED as the marathon race to cast the title role for "Wonder Woman" continues!

....WE INVITE YOUR COMMENTS AS TO WHO YOU THINK SHOULD BE CAST IN THE TITLE ROLE AS "WONDER WOMAN"!!!!....
